On start up

[Eric]

When i start my car the AFR mix is at 11.5 and the exhaust smokes more then normal is this bad??

 

[Nate]

It should run a bit more rich till its up to temp.... but smoke? Is it really smoke or steam from the cold damp weather we've been having.

 

[Eric]

it might be steam but it stinks like fuel .

 

[Nate]

You're catless now. It will smell like fuel.
